New Comics For Wednesday 23rd October


Spooky week ahead, we've got our Free Comic Halloween event this Saturday, followed closely by our Witchy signing event with local creator, Ariel Reis on Sunday afternoon, which rolls into the next All Star Womens Comic Book Club meet up! Lots to see and do and that's before we've even gotten to this monster list of new releases for this week!

It's been years since Mary Jane Watson last performed, but as we saw in Amazing Spider-Man #25, she's still got killer acting skills, and she finally gets to start putting them to use in AMAZING MARY JANE #1, from Leah Williams and Carlos E Gomez. MJ's landed a role in a big Hollywood film, but who can she trust when the director is none other than Quentin Beck, AKA Mysterio? The Marvel Universe's favourite redhead finally gets her own ongoing series, and it all begins here; don't miss out.

While he hasn't worked on a worldwide status since the Dan Slott days, Peter Parker finds himself globetrotting once again in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN FULL CIRCLE #1, a mega-sized issue from Nick Spencer, Chris Bachalo, Jonathan Hickman, Chris Sprouse and more. Nick Fury has called upon Spider-Man to help them stop the latest threat to menace the Earth, but what is it this villain has planned from his steel box prison? We don't know, but it must be huge if Wolverine and Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham are making special guest appearances.

The Hulk may be immortal now, but Al Ewing and Joe Bennett take you billions of years into the future in the groundbreaking IMMORTAL HULK #25, a comic unlike any other, where the Hulk now rests in peace. But there is no peace for the universe he left behind; the inevitable heat death has taken place and now the Breaker of Worlds stands unopposed in a defenseless world. You'll have to check out the issue if you want to learn the shocking resolution.

Before he was immortal, indestructible, totally awesome, heck, even green, Bruce Banner was the Incredible Hulk, and you find out how it all began in INCREDIBLE HULK #1 FACSIMILE EDITION, from the Marvel dream team of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Not only will you see how milquetoast Banner becomes the unstoppable Hulk, but also his first fight against the Iron Curtain and their monstrous agent, the Grey Gargoyle. Relive the classic excitement, and amuse yourself by checking out the original ads from the 60s.

In Jonathan Hickman's bold, new Dawn of X, Captain Kitty Pryde and her crew, Storm, Pyro, Bishop and Iceman sail the seas as the Marauders, in MARAUDERS #1 DX, from Gerry Duggan and Matteo Lolli. With the backing of Emma Frost and her Hellfire Trading Company, Pryde and the X-Men will travel the oceans to right any and all wrongs committed against and by mutantkind.

The scariest Shazam this side of Mazahs, the Infected Shazam from the land of the Batman Who Laughs is wreaking havoc in Black Adam's kingdom in BLACK ADAM YEAR OF THE VILLAIN #1, from Paul Jenkins and Inaki Miranda. Now Black Adam must be the hero of his kingdom, lest the Infected Shazam wins and a corrupted Billy Batson sits upon the throne.

If you missed out on a copy of the House of Secrets #92 facsimile issue and really want to see the original debut of Swamp Thing, then DC has your back with DOLLAR COMICS SWAMP THING #1, which reprints the origin of one of DC's spookiest characters. When an act of sabotage is set to kill Alec Holland, the Swamp Thing rises to seek his vengeance in a macabre tale perfect for the Halloween season.

If that Swamp Thing Dollar Comic has whet your appetite for all things swampy and scary, then you definitely can't pass up SWAMP THING GIANT #1. Featuring two brand new stories from Mark Russell, Marco Santucci, Andrew Constant and Tom Mandrake, as well as reprinting three classic stories from Swamp Thing's past, this 100-page package of a comic is just what you need to fuel your Swamp Thing drive.

Richard White is a former FBI agent seeking redemption, and his old mentor might just have the job to achieve it in AMERICAN CARNAGE TP, which collects the entire 9-issue limited series from Bryan Hill and Leandro Fernandez. A fellow agent on an undercover operation is found dead, and they suspect that the white supremacist group he was infiltrating was behind it. While he passes as white, Richard himself is African-American, and must now himself deceive a group that wants to see him dead, to avenge the fallen colleague.

A young Dinah Lance takes the spotlight in BLACK CANARY IGNITE TP DC ZOOM, from Meg Cabot and Cara McGee. It's not often that youngsters can plan their future out, but Dinah seems to have pulled it off. She'll win the battle of the bands with her two friends, then join the Gotham City Junior Police to start herself along the path of a crime fighter. But plans seldom work the way we want, as Dinah finds out when a mysterious figure does its best to sabotage her life and threaten her family, which makes her ponder what secrets lie in her family's past.

For centuries, America has been home to a secret war between a coven of witches and the group of men trying to tame them, called the Architects. It was thought the conflict was over when the witches killed the leader of the architects in 2005. But thirteen years later, in HEX WIVES TP, from Ben Blacker and Mirka Andolfo, it would appear that it wasn't the end at all and the new hope lies in Isadora... who has no memory of ever having been a witch.

After ten exciting, action-packed volumes, Kengo Hanazawa's zombie apocalypse manga reaches its timely conclusion with I AM A HERO OMNIBUS TP VOL 11. Humanity is about to end, but which side will the remaining survivors fall into? Will they become part of the horrific zombie hive-mind, or will they succumb to the finality of death? 

From award-winning creators G. Willow Wilson and Christian Ward comes a sci-fi story of conspiracy, intrigue and adventure with INVISIBLE KINGDOM TP VOL 01. Two unlikely women, one a religious acolyte, the other a hard boiled freighter pilot who has uncovered a conspiracy in the galaxy's largest religion, are on the run together, from those who don't wish for the truth to be revealed. Now, the duo must decide where their loyalties truly lie, and prepare themselves for the anarchy they may be about to release.

For most of her life, Naomi McDuffie thought she was just another ordinary kid, an orphan adopted by some very loving, supportive parents. But that illusion shatters when Superman and Mongul duke it out in her Northwest American town, leading her down a winding path to the truth of her heritage in NAOMI SEASON ONE HC, from Brian Michael Bendis, David Walker and Jamal Campbell. Full of twists and turns you won't see coming, learn all about a new corner of the DC Universe as Naomi learns about her past, and her future.
Naomi is set for big things in the future of the DC Universe, so if you want to know how it all begins, don't miss out on this one!

One of the biggest events to celebrate Marvel's 80th anniversary, Chip Zdarsky and Mark Bagley go back to where Spider-Man started and tell his journey from 1962 to 2019 in SPIDER-MAN LIFE STORY TP, except in this world, Peter and the rest of the Marvel universe is subject to the passage of time. Always a little older, a little wiser, and eventually past his peak, find out how Peter Parker navigates all manner of wars, from Vietnam to Civil, with some Secret in between. You'll also experience the other big moments that changed, not just Spidey's life, but comics as a whole, but with a very different Spider-Man with decades of experience under his belt.

Jon Kent and Damian "Ian" Wayne are back as Superboy and Robin, the Super Sons, for a new adventure in SUPER SONS BOOK 02 THE FOXGLOVE MISSION TP DC ZOOM, an all-action, all-adventure, all-ages graphic novel from Ridley Pearson and Ile Gonzalez. Following the fallout of the PolarShield Project, Jon and Damian are on the run, and their fathers are still missing in action. As the dynamic duo work together to find a sample of a deadly virus that threatens the town of Wyndemere and Jon's mother, Lois Lane, their ally Candace is on her own mission to learn the mystery behind her own destiny. But with these differing goals, will all three be able to maintain a steady team? Or are they destined to fall apart?

Zander Cannon is back with a new series featuring his large prison to house even larger kaiju monster threats with KAIJUMAX SEASON 5 #1, a brand new starting point where fans can continue and newcomers can jump in. With much of the prison already revealed in previous series, now you'll go down to Orange Mile, where the worst of the worst kaiju criminals lay in wait for their final penalty. That's right folks, you're about to see Kaijumax's infamous Death Row.

In the far future, mankind has the ability to travel to the stars... but it is incredibly expensive. The price has put many off travelling the stars, but that hasn't stopped Christine Ocampos, who has managed to her own teleportation device, the Star Shot. Now in MONEY SHOT #1, from Tim Seeley, Sarah Beattie, Kurt Russell and Rebekah Isaacs, Christine and a team of scientist/pornstars will explore strange new world, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly film videos the internet has never seen before.

If you or a friend missed out on a copy of a Christmas-themed retelling of Die Hard last year, then be sure to pick up a copy this year with A DIE HARD CHRISTMAS GIFT SET, which features the book from Doogie Horner and JJ Harrison, as well as a bonus plushie of the John McClane. It's the perfect Christmas gift, but it won't last long on the shelf. Be sure to secure your order ASAP.

If you loved Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen's Descender series and wished it ran longer than six volumes, then you're in luck, for the duo have returned to pick up the story ten years later, beginning in ASCENDER TP VOL 01. The science-fiction setting has now given away to fantasy, magic replacing machinery, and young Mila, the daughter of Andy and Effie, is about to get roped into an adventure of her own when an old robot friend of her father's unexpectedly turns up.

When an entire school unexpectedly disappears, leaving no trace but the hole the foundations were built into, the parents of the students were left to mourn. But as horrific as that experience is, it's a lot worse for the displaced students and teachers who are left to fight to survive the dreaded dimension they find themselves in DRIFTING CLASSROOM HC VOL 01 PERFECT ED UMEZZ, from Kauzo Umezz.

The series that has captured the hearts and minds the world over gets a tribute artbook featuring the work of 200 different artists with the VISIONS FROM UPSIDE DOWN STRANGER THINGS ART BOOK. See the town of Hawkins, Indiana, the eerie setting of Stranger Things be represented in all it's spooky glory by artists such as Rian Hughes, Matt Busch, John McCrea, Butcher Billy, Orlando Arocena, Emma Needell and many, many more. A great book for art lovers and fans of Stranger Things, and the perfect give for those who are both. 

Make sure to let us know before close on Tuesday if there is anything else you'd like us to stash for you.
So until we see you next have a great week, live life and read comics!
